About that birthday letter to Epstein [View all]

It isn’t clear how the letter with Trump’s signature was prepared. Inside the outline of the naked woman was a typewritten note styled as an imaginary conversation between Trump and Epstein, written in the third person.

“Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything,” the note began.
Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.
Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.
Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it.
Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?
Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.
Trump: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.

I assume Ghislaine Maxwell wrote this and trump just signed it. This really seems like a future blackmail or compomising letter that could be used to hold something over trump. Just look at the language; it's going out of its way to link trump and Epstein in some 'secret' activity.

So did Maxwell instigate this herself or did Epstein put her up to it so that he had something to hold over trump? Maxwell was a lot more smitten with Epstein than he with her and it's proven that she would do practically anything for him. She had a peculiarly dependent relationship with her father and the Maxwell family had lost much of their wealth in the pension scheme.

Of course, she could have needed a little insurance against both Epstein and trump, but I suspect that Jeffrey put her up to it - make sure trump was incriminated, after all he is too thick and arrogant to read what she'd witten and understand it.

Lots of questions but I'll back it in that the birthday letter was deliberately incriminating.
